Researchers in China and Singapore have developed a new way to use solar energy and biomass to make cheaper green hydrogen.The method turns sugars from biomass (such as agricultural waste cellulose) into hydrogen and another useful chemical, formate, at the same time.This could be cheaper and may use less energy than standard solar electrolysis that only splits water, because the sugar oxidation...
New Solar Co-Electrolysis Route Cuts Green Hydrogen Cost Below Fossil Hydrogen Fuel Cells Works Source link...
Houston’s Lummus Technology and Advanced Ionics have broken ground on their hydrogen pilot plant at Lummus’ R&D facility in Pasadena, Texas.The plant will support Advanced Ionics’ cutting-edge electrolyzer technology, which aims to deliver high-efficiency hydrogen production with reduced energy requirements.“By demonstrating Advanced Ionics’ technology at our state-of-the-art R&D...
Al Maha Petroleum and Hydronova to Develop Hydrogen Solutions Fuel Cells Works Source link...
Hydrogen has long been overshadowed by the more popular renewable energy sectors such as wind and solar, with nuclear energy even making a triumphant comeback in recent years. However, a new report from the Hydrogen Council paints a pretty picture for the hydrogen sector. Since 2020, over 1,500 projects have been announced, with several of those poised to make key breakthroughs this year. Clean...
In regard to the electricity grid, the concept of a dedicated ‘Green Energy Corridor’ for hydrogen projects has been proposed as a way to meet the ‘additionality’ and temporal and geographical consistency requirements under European standards. However, while this model may provide investors with greater regulatory certainty, it carries the risk of establishing isolated networks devoted to...
A green hydrogen plant with a capacity of 5 MW began operations at Namibia’s Walvis Bay port in December 2025, marking an important step toward cleaner energy use in Africa. The project, developed by Plug Power together with Cleanergy Solutions Namibia, is one of the first fully integrated commercial green hydrogen facilities on the continent and operates entirely using renewable energy, reports...
2026-01-05T07:38:00 Morocco’s ports are set to play a central role in accelerating the country’s green hydrogen economy, under new World Bank-backed recommendations targeting shipping, industry and exports. A new World Bank report outlines how national policymakers and port authorities can jointly unlock an integrated...
by Riko Seibo Tokyo, Japan (SPX) Jan 05, 2026 Researchers in China and Singapore have demonstrated a solar-powered co-electrolysis route that produces hydrogen at projected costs below fossil-based hydrogen while upgrading biomass-derived sugars into formate. The system couples water electrolysis with selective oxidation of glucose on a copper-doped cobalt oxyhydroxide catalyst,...
Next year, the world’s two largest hydrogen-operated ferries will start operation across Vestfjorden, connecting the city of Bodo to remote islands. But hydrogen production will not thrive on market terms, according to chief analyst Sigbjorn Seland of Stormgeo.Photo: Torghatten/Norwegian Ship Design/Stormgeo Source link...
